Another lowering springs question

[Texas01GT]

hey guys, i have a 2001 gt with 81,000 miles on it, i was thinking of going with the eibach pro kit...which states it should lower the car about 1.5 inchs, my question is do i need to waittill i can affordshocks and struts,or can i cruise around on the stock one for a while without them blowing out on me or something...also will i for sure need CC plates?

Your stock shocks & struts are completely worn already. So the Eibach Pro-Kits cannot do much more damage.

I would recommend installing aftermarket shocks & struts as soon as possible. Your ride will be very erratic and uncontrolled with the your oem shocks, in the state they're in now.

Sincerely,

wow ok, thankd for the replie, ive been lurkin around on here and was hoping to get a answer from you guys at StangSuspesion..you guys know your stuff haha, anyway about what miles do the stock shocks and struts go out?

[STANGSUSPENSION]

Honestly, we've seen the OEM Motorcraft shocks go out as early as 20k miles.

i just did pro-kits with tokico blues and mm c/c plates this weekend. my car is a 04Gt with 24000 miles. one shock was completely, totally gone and the struts and other shock were very weak. listen to Josh. he knows whats up with these parts.
